Exxon, TotalEnergies face fresh output risk as Iran war squeezes Hormuz — and oil stocks react

Exxon, TotalEnergies face fresh output risk as Iran war squeezes Hormuz — and oil stocks react

Exxon Mobil, TotalEnergies, and Shell are looking at increased threats to their oil and gas production, with analysts pointing to the U.S.-Israel conflict with Iran as fields go offline and shipping routes get squeezed. Still, the sector finds support from climbing prices. The big concern right now: the Strait of Hormuz. Tankers packed with crude, fuel, and LNG squeeze through this narrow passage between Iran and Oman to get out of the Gulf. If shipping stalls here, supplies dwindle quickly and buyers end up paying higher prices.

PARIS — November 17, 2025. TotalEnergies has agreed to acquire a 50% stake in Energetický a průmyslový holding’s flexible power generation platform in a €5.1 billion, all‑stock transaction. The deal creates a 50/50 joint venture spanning more than 14 gigawatts of gas‑fired, biomass and battery assets across Italy, the UK & Ireland, the Netherlands and France, with closing targeted for mid‑2026 pending approvals. EPH will be paid in newly issued TotalEnergies shares and become a meaningful shareholder in the French energy major. TotalEnergies.com+1 For TotalEnergies, the acquisition accelerates a strategy to marry intermittent renewables with “clean firm” capacity that can balance grids and serve large, round‑the‑clock loads such as data centers. The company also points to tighter gas‑to‑power integration in Europe, leveraging its leading LNG supply position; management estimates the incremental power output enables value capture linked to roughly 2 million tpa of LNG.
